    Pedro watch for me today. Would prefer him over fab or willian.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,671 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    That's a sh!te Arsenal team. I'll be staying well away for a few weeks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,672 ✭✭✭ElTel


    Pedro watch for me today. Would prefer him over fab or willian.

    Lacazette for me but disappointed both Ozil and Sanchez are missing.

    Batshuayi watch for me but he'd have to do something spectacular to convince me as I think morata will start getting more time very soon.

    Keeping an eye on the cesc/willian/Pedro trio


  • Registered Users Posts: 36,010 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Pedro back is beautiful. Definitely on my watch list

    Staying away from Arsenal for a couple of weeks.

    Lacazettw curls one onto post
    He looks good


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,671 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Rob Holding looks an excellent defender. 5.0, onto the watch list he goes.

    Just checked there and mertesacker is also 5ml
    I think he has started a lot of their preseason games

    And off he goes
    New guy on
    Looking forward to seeing how he gets on attacking wise
    Gone left centre back with Ox LWB


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Alonso booked
    Presumably for his hair which is even worse than last year :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Willian booked for dive in box


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Bit harsh on Willian on second glance. Hard to spot that in real time though.

    Chelsea pretty uninspiring


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,671 ✭✭✭ScummyMan


    Moses (Cahill)

    Sh!te FPL goal :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Moses (Cahill)

    Hopefully be more goals, first half was awful


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,131 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Moses (Cahill)

    I switched off
    May turn it back on now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,502 ✭✭✭spock.


    Moses is going to be an interesting prospect this year now that he's a defender.

    I agree, completely gone under the radar IMO

    At 6.5, he's expensive but I have Alonso in my team as a '6th Mid'

    Might look to switch to Moses now

    EDIT: Just checked and he's suspended for the first two games :o

    Moratta on 73 mins
    Batman off he was anonymous
